1905List2839Boston Massachusetts 1905. Single 8.5 x 8.5 inch sheet cut from a larger whole; likely missing a portion. Marks at upper left side some folding. Otherwise excellent to near fine. Wanted poster for Mary S. Dean dated December 16 1905. Three months prior a young woman’s torso had been found in a suitcase floating in Boston Harbor. A month later a suitcase containing her limbs was found and she was identified as Susanna Geary. In September Geary had gone to the medical practice on Tremont Street where Dean worked as a nurse and Dean had performed an abortion for her - at the time an illegal procedure in Massachusetts. Geary developed sepsis from the surgery; when she died Dean and three men one a doctor conspired to dismember Geary and dispose of her body in the ocean.1 The doctor was acquitted and the two men pleaded guilty but Mary S. Dean was never found.<br /> <br /> 1 “Says McLeod Made Plans: Crawford Testifies in Suit Case Trial†The Boston Globe November 28 1905. unknown
1971142343New York: Women's National Abortion Action Coalition 1971. A striking original poster publicizing the first abortion rights march on Washington DC part of a series of events on 20 November 1971 which constituted the largest protests for women's rights since the suffrage campaign over 50 years before. The poster which depicts a silhouetted female figure with a clenched first looking upwards to the female gender symbol reiterates the main aims - "Repeal anti abortion laws" "Against forced sterilization and restrictive contraception laws" - and gives the location of and ticket price for buses leaving New York City for Washington. Small type beneath states "Men Welcome To March". WONAAC was founded on 19 July 1971 at a national conference held at Columbia University attended by over 1000 women from 23 states. The organization's 16 September newsletter details arrangements for the aforementioned march including a motion proposing "that the march route duplicate that of the Suffragists" and an order form which gave prices for the event posters stickers buttons and leaflets all using the slogan "Abortion - A Woman's Right to Choose". Approximately 2000 demonstrators marched on the US Capitol to seek the repeal of all anti-abortion laws; similar rallies took place in New York City and San Francisco. Speakers included the lawyer Barbara Roberts and Linda Jenness the Socialist Workers' Party candidate for president. Music was provided by the Women's Liberation Rock Band from Connecticut. Two years later the landmark Roe v. Wade decision was made. A button with the same slogan and approximate date is held at the University of Kansas and the Schlesinger Library's collection of feminist ephemera also includes WONAAC material. We cannot trace another example in commerce. Original promotional poster 51 x 35.5 cm medium stock yellow card printed in black. In fine condition bright and unfaded. unknown

1970207481970. Coalition for Abortion Rights and Against Sterilization and anonymous author two printed items dating from circa 1968 to 1978 document grassroots organizing around reproductive rights anti sterilization advocacy and radical feminist political strategy during the late twentieth century women's liberation movement. The materials engage directly with the legal and social consequences of the Hyde Amendment which eliminated most federal funding for abortion services and disproportionately affected poor non white and younger women. Produced within activist networks in the United States and Canada these items articulate both immediate protest demands and broader revolutionary frameworks linking abortion access to critiques of state power racism and class inequality. The language of the materials emphasizes collective action including public demonstration institutional organizing and the development of independent services such as clinics and childcare.<br /> <br /> Archive of two printed items comprising one handbill and one stapled essay.<br /> 1 Coalition for Abortion Rights and Against Sterilization. Handbill. Buffalo New York: Coalition for Abortion Rights and Against Sterilization 1978. Single sheet 8.5 x 11 inches printed in black and orange. Features graphic imagery of a coat hanger with the phrase "Never Again!" referencing unsafe abortion practices. Text outlines the impact of the Hyde Amendment on Medicaid funded abortion access and calls for demonstration on International Women's Day March 4 1978 with the directive "Defend a woman's right to choose!"<br /> 2 Anonymous. Everything They Say We Are We Are. Vancouver British Columbia circa 1968 to 1974. Eight pages stapled 8.5 x 11 inches. Manifesto style essay outlining the position of a group of radical women activists separating from a Women's Caucus to pursue a more explicitly communist and anti imperialist feminist program. Text advocates direct action including establishing abortion clinics organizing incarcerated women and developing community childcare and concludes with the statement: "The Duty of Every Revolutionary is to Make the Revolution."<br /> <br /> These materials situate reproductive rights activism within broader currents of second wave feminism particularly the intersection of abortion access with critiques of forced sterilization economic inequality and racial discrimination. The Buffalo handbill reflects organized response to federal policy changes in the late 1970s while the Vancouver essay demonstrates the ideological diversity within feminist movements including the emergence of explicitly socialist and anti imperialist frameworks. Together they document both reform oriented and revolutionary strands of feminist organizing across North America offering insight into how activists linked reproductive autonomy to wider struggles over labor incarceration and state authority.

196288264London: Gollancz 1962. First U.K. Edition. First Impression. Octavo 22cm. Publisher's maroon cloth titled in gilt to spine; dustjacket; 220pp. Tight clean copy; a Very Good clean copy. In the original dustwrapper price-clipped slightly rubbed on rear panel with an unfortunate closed square tear to the upper left front panel else crisp clean example Very Good or better. Simultaneously published in the U.S. by Doubleday. <br /> <br /> Pseudonymously published tell-all memoir of Dr. Nathan Rappaport a New York City physician who beginning in the Great Depression provided illegal but safe abortions to thousands of clients performing as many as 27 procedures in a single day before finally going to prison in 1950 after being ratted out by a mobster to whom he'd refused to pay blackmail. Includes case studies somewhat dramatized and a lengthy cogent pre-Roe argument for legalizing abortion. Following his parole from prison in 1966 Rappaport became an above-ground spokesman for legal abortion beginning with a lengthy Village Voice profile in 1966. Susan Brownmiller later called him "America's most loquacious abortionist" and he was the subject of an episode of Slate's "Slow Burn" podcast in 2022. For predictable reasons the book was not a huge seller for either Doubleday or Gollancz and well-preserved copies are very hard to find. Gollancz unknown

In 8, pp. X + 345 + (3b). Firma di possesso al p. ant. Dedica autogr. dell'A. alla prima c. di sguardia. Lievi mancanze al d. Br. ed. Fa parte della Collana 'Biblioteca Antropologico-giuridica', serie I, vol. V. Ed. orig. di questo studio completo e sistematico dei nuovi criteri giuridici con cui andavano considerati l'aborto e l'infanticidio. L'A., avvocato, dopo un iniziale inquadramento storico relativo a tali pratiche nell'antichita', passa in rassegna le principali posizioni in materia (Pessina, Puglia, Carrara), per poi esporre il testo del progetto di riforma dell'ultimo Codice penale. L'A., in particolare, ritiene necessario mitigare le pene per l'infanticidio perche' si tratta della 'soppressione di una esistenza che e' cosi' minacciata e nello stesso tempo minacciosa: minacciata per la frequenza dei nati-morti illegittimi e per la mortalita' che colpisce piu' tardi il trovatello ed in genere il fanciullo non allevato dalla propria madre'.

In 8, pp. 62 + (1) + (1b). Lieve mancanza all'ang. est. sup. del p. ant. Br. ed. Nell'opera l'A. mette in correlazione l'aborto e l'infanticidio con il disonore presso la pubblica opinione che deriva dal fatto di aver procreato al di fuori del matrimonio. Borelli sostiene infatti che le madri, quando non ricorrono al suicidio, all'aborto o all'infanticidio, si vedono comunque costrette all'eposizione del neonato: questa e' sicuramente per lei 'una pena morale, che le fara' maledire una societa' ipocrita, che le fa colpa di aver obbedito ad una delle passioni piu' naturali, senza farvi precedere una formalita', che sovente non e' che una menzogna ed un ludibrio'. L'A., originario di Boves, era avvocato, giureconsulto, naturalista, ma si interesso' anche di sociologia, storia e scienze naturali.
